Dear Readers,

Welcome to my public blog. I use this blog now only for my non-family related posts. All of our family posts, including pictures and videos of our little guy, can now be seen on our private blog. Our private blog can be found HERE.

If you like to use Google Reader or blog lists to see when a blog has been updated, just keep this blog on those lists. I will put a post up on this blog letting you know I have posted on our private blog so that you will still get the updates.

If you would like an invitation to our private blog please leave your email address in a comment on this blog - comments must be approved prior to posting so no one else will see your address. Please don't hesitate to ask for an invitation if you have enjoyed keeping up with us through this blog. Blog Stalkers, it is time to make yourselves known! :) Seriously though, please ask for an invite if you want one and if you think I might not know who you are just give me a little reminder of how I know you.

Happy Blogging! -Lara

I Tagged Myself

I saw this post on my friend Noelle's blog and wanted to do it as well so I tagged myself. If anyone else is interested feel free to tag yourself as well.

What is your current obsession?
Guacamole, Disney movies

Do you nap a lot?
I LOVE naps and would take them every day if I could. I am tempted to take a nap pretty much every day when I get home from work, but I don't because I can't really justify taking a nap at 5:00 in the afternoon. I usually always take a nap on Sunday, it was easier when we got home from church at noon, but I still squeeze one in when we get home at 2:00 now. I sleep in on Saturdays instead of taking a nap. I pretty much love sleeping.

Who was the last person you hugged?
Jayson!

What was the last thing you bought?
Milk. That is it, just one gallon of milk.

What are you listening to right now?
The giant mastiff that belongs to our above neighbors romp around on our ceiling; our furnace running and wishing that it would warm our house up quicker, I'm freezing!

What is your favorite weather?
Fall. I love sunny, crisp, cool, sweater weather.

What’s on your bedside table?
Too much junk! I have a dusty reading lamp, a pile of books, a pile of random papers, a glass of water, a bunch of bobby pins, and a small clip-on fan.

If you could have a house totally paid for, fully furnished anywhere in the world, where would you want it to be?
Close to my family and close to the mountains

Favorite vacation spot?
I don't really have a certain "spot". I like to go on vacations where I go to lots of different spots and see lots of different things. If we had a cabin though I think that would become one of my favorite vacation spots.

Name the things you can’t live without.
Jayson, family, chocolate, the internet, music, fuzzy socks, chapstick, okay I guess I could probably live without most those things, but I really like them a lot.

What would you like to have in your hands right now?
A baby. Well not just a baby, my own baby.

What would you like to get rid of?
All the paperwork at my job, specifically IEP's (Individualized Education Plans). I've got 50 of my yearly IEP's for my students under my belt, only 14 more to go!

If you could be anywhere in the world for the next hour, where would you go?
Redmond, WA

What did you want to become as a child?
An elephant trainer

What do you like better, e-mail or telephone calls?
I really like both. Sometimes I like emails better because I feel like I can express myself better in written language than in verbal language, but if it is a friend or family I always enjoy a good phone chat.

What do you do when you get time alone?
Blog, read a book, watch a "girl movie" that I know Jayson won't enjoy

I am so much like you. Most of my answers would have been pretty close to yours. I might have to tag myself also with this one.

Jana said...

What a cute tag! Hopefully you'll have that baby in your arms soon :) You'll make a great mom when that day comes!

Noelle said...

How fun, I love these little things :) I love guacamole and disney movies too. :)

Nonie said...

Well, until you're holding that baby of your own, please enjoy all of this SLEEP for me!!

Love you.

I love that you wanted to be an elephant trainer...I don't think I have ever known that about you :) Good luck getting those last 14 IEP's completted. I know that is a ton of work! And I hope you don't have to wait much longer for that baby! Hang in there!
